| schestowitz[TR2] | I struggled to get to STSM after over 20 years at IBM. I present at conferences, publish, mentor, win awards - and all of this in my spare time. I work a very full week trying to convince our resource-constrained execs to make smarter investments and to innovate, however small. It is getting harder and harder to do anything of consequence in The IBM that Arvind Built but I keep trying to innovate even if my Veeps have given up. | Jan 25 22:17 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | I am hearing a lot of envy here and some flat out falsehoods. I know of NO technical leader who was handed a title without earning it. That distinction is reserved for Directors and VPs and management track titles which are purely political. You need more than a pretty face or ability to bend your knee to get a technical title. It was grueling. | Jan 25 22:17 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | I was told I will be gone in the March RA - right after I got an award for my latest book. But I never bent my knee to this executive monoculture. That's the difference. | Jan 25 22:17 |
